Union says university administration ‘continues to stonewall’ despite months of negotiations
The possibility of a strike at NOSM University is a step closer to reality in view of the fact that the unionized workers are now requesting a no-board report from the Ministry of Training, Labour and Skills Development.
The NOSM U Faculty and Staff Association , OPSEU Local 677, representing medical education faculty, librarians, and professional staff, has been in provincially mediated conciliation with the NOSM University administration since Sept. 22, but is dissatisfied with the current situation. "Despite months of negotiations, the NOSM University administration continues to stonewall proposals crucial for education quality, equity, and job security," said a news release from NUFSA.
"The administration refuses to meaningfully address concerns about working and learning conditions at the university. This, despite university employees, students, and the broader community demanding action from NOSM U President Sarita Verma and her bargaining team," the union news release continued.
Based on the timing, a legal strike or lock-out may begin on the 17th day after the Minister of Labour, Training and Skills Development releases the no-board notice to the employer and the union, said the Ontario labour ministry website.
